Sorry to hear of Fred's passing, I had the privilege of meeting Fred many years ago when he came to my home to take pictures of my old layout for OGR magazine. He was here for quite a few hours taking pictures, and was very helpful in preparing the layout for the pictures. The layout at the time had florescent lighting and I remember Fred saying in a very positive/kind manner, that this type of light does not do justice for our layouts. Years later when I started preparing for the new layout, I remembered Fred's words about the lighting and installed track lighting above the new layout. This was of course a huge difference in the lighting of the layout. This is just my little story of Fred, and the short time we spent together all those years ago!! Please see the attached photo of Mr. Dole!
Rest in peace my friend,
Jeff James
